Twin sisters joined at the head faced a second night of life-threatening
surgery on July 7, 2003 as Singapore doctors expressed cautious optimism
the operation to separate them was going well. The second stage of
the craniotomy, or opening up the combined skulls of the 29-year

and veins around the women's two brains and may take the team of
five neurosurgeons up to 10 hours to complete. (Reuters Graphic)
